Editorials on News (Coitinued from pas 1.) arc requited In seasons of aver age rainfall tp pasture a cow and on how muc the cow Is worth when ready for sale. In other words, land Is worth in' normal times What 11 will pajj a reasonable return on. But these aren't normal times. SMALL tracts of land in North ern California; and Southern and Western Oregon are in keen demandReal estate dealers gen erally report that the difficulty lies In finding land for sale not in finding buyers for it. . Much of this buying Is belni done by people who are obviously unfamiliar with land purchase, Many of them, this writer ha; been told, pay for it in casl . taken' out of pants pockets am nccled' from roils of lurCe bills, .Some of ,them dp not even know .that land Is transferred by deed. ;liHY do so many people who If never thought of buying land ' before wnnt It now? ( You can probably answer that question as well as anybody pise. ' Maybe much better; than this writer. But it Is PROBABLY be cause people (eel instinctively that present Inflated, boom con ditions can't last forever and that a reckoning must conic soon er or Inter. ... The belief fs deeply rooted In ATI people that land Is the founda tion of all wealth and that it Is more permanent and less sub ject to fluctuation than ANY OTHER form of wealth. THAT may be true, or It may not be. This writer, by chance, leluip cd from the East by way of Mi ami at the peak 6i the wild Flori da boom of the lute t!)20's. Lois then were selling at almost any price askvd for them and were likely to be snapped up the next day at a price MUCH higher. By the next year, the boom had busted and these same lots couldn't be sold at ANY price. TlfE point is that the price at which Florida land was then selling had NO RELATION WHATEVER to ils Intrinsic value that Is, the figure at which its I'RODUCTION will yIMd a reasonable return. All this lot-selling was Just wild, getrkhqult'k Rambling. The price at which these lols were selling had no more to do with their real value than the retail price of poker chips has lo do with the size of the pot. IT could happen that way again, with all this demand for land as an Investment for the larger earnings of war time. But It doesn't appear to this writer that any such danger point is yet ap proaching. As nearly as can lie learned, most of these new real estate In vestors want the land FOR IT SELF, ratlior than for any quick profit to tie made from resale. They are taking this opportunity to satisfy the hunger for land that seems to be Ingrained In all Americans. As long as thai remains true, "FREEDOM FROM WANT" T, REEDOM from Want" is h the Unified States today tory. But a post-war day looms ahead when plenty of wise thinking and hard work may be needed to keep that brave, Utopian promise even close to its present level of achieve ment, reports S. Burton Heath, N. E. A. commentator. That a start has been made on this wise thinking is evi dent in the eighth annual board. It contains several new recommendations which are designed to give a broader base and greater range of "Free dom" of which this program is' a' practical representation. Among other things, the board would extend old-age and survivor insurance to jiiclude the self-employed, farm and domestic workers, and employes of public organizations, non-profit institutions, and federal, state and local govern ments. There should be little quarrel with this, since obviously modest incomes, cessation of earning power, and acute need are not the exclusive properties of the workers now covered by social insurance. Neither should there be much bickering over the proposal to protect the social, security rights of the niillions now in the armed forces, oi1 to insure against total loss of income due to permanent or total disability. . The Social Security board also presents sound arguments in favor of replacing the 51 state and territorial unemploy ment insurance systems with a uniform, national system to be administered locally. Besides correcting numerous cur rent inequalities, the proposed system would relieve employ ers of considerable complicated bookwork, especially in the case of interstate employers. The board would also lower fits to wives from 65 to 60, since, as it points out, wives are ordinarily younger than their husbands. And it would re move the requirement of regular school attendance now attached to benefit payments to dependent children. One "thing is certain. The Social Security board's propo sals deserve careful consideration and temperate argu ment, aimed toward the greatest good and unclouded by par tisan clashes of political philosophy. Social insurance is here to stay. Millions have needed it, even in 'this time of supernormal wages. Millions more are going to need it badly after the war. The whole country Has a stake in seeing that the lawmakers give them the best, fairest and wisest deal possible. (By L. F. R.) Music lovers and patrons of Roseburg and neighboring localities deserve commendation for underwriting a sea sonal program of high class entertainment for the com munity. Through the initiative and energy of the recently organized Community Concert association, enough seasonal tickets have been sold to assure four concerts one more than the jtotal originally set. This is welcome evidence that wartime jUress litis not dulled the community's appreciation oFciiltural values and 'that "private purses, although heavily tapped by increased taxes find living costs, as well as by the patriotic duty of war bond buying, are still open for sup port of meritorious entertainment. Miisic is ah ages-old anodyne for worry and tiresome physical routine, and iti this respect there will be compensa tion for many who subscribed to membership in the concert association during the current period of exacting wartime conditions. The concerts, while necessarily limited in num ber by the experimental character of the venture, will never theless put the community on the map as a promising field for subsequent appearances by outstanding talent on a much broader scale. This warrants the happy expectation that expansion of healthy entertainment will bo apace with our growth in population and industrial development, to provide a proper balance in living conditions and enhance the attractive advantages of the Unipqua valley. we don't need to be greatly wor ried over this present land boom. The danger oint will arrive when people begin to buy in or-1 der to sell the next day for a big profit.

His subject: The conversion of sawdust and wood waste to al cohol. It Is, of course, of vital in terest to everyone interested in the future or this part of the country, so he sure to remem hrr the time-(i:4!i on Thursday exenlng. Also for Thursday, it's Julia Sanderson's "Let's Be Charming" at 10:30 a. m.; Junior Jamboree at 5; Music You Re member, 6:30 and following that Congressman Ellsworth's talk. We'd like to suggest you notice and note the Treasury Star Pa lade that Is scheduled for 8 o'clock in the evening. It's Lionel Barrymoie In "The Man Without a Country". Sounds yood, ell what? Remember tonight at 6:30 is Soldiers Willi Wings with super guest stars. We like Royal Arch Cunnison at 7 with his news, too but none of them can touch Glenn Hardy on I he Newspaper of the Air as far as wo're con corned. Just as an appetizer for Saturday night listening there's a big deal on all tour major net works with such an array of stars as you've never heard, in a salute to President Roosevelt on his birthday and a grand finale to the March of Dimes.

DAILY DEVOTIONS DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS .,"Ye men, of , Galilee, why stand ye gazing up Into the heavens?" The disciples stood watching the spectacle of Christ' , ascension In awe stricken silence. There through the parting clouds they beheld their (deal, . They caught a soul-moving vision, They heard the call to gq and preach, to be His witnesses. What .a thrilling thing to walk through :he. years with their eyes on that opening sky. Possibly be cause of awe and wonder they might have gone on. unheed ing the command to go and witness, had they not been re minded that there was more to this than gazing into the sky. There was work to do. They were, to seek those He loved anti bring them to Him. A common phrast heard on movie sets Is, "Light, Camera, Action." , First there was light the, light of the w-orld. Then there was exposure to that ligh,r, which penetrated and printed itself upon their hearts. Finally there was ac tion. That light imprinted up on, their characters,; springs into action.
